Default Clutch master cylinder dead at 56k miles

Is this normal? 01 Type R 56k miles. I noticed my pedal feeling softer and softer...barely made it home with a dead clutch mc.

What's the best place to order one? This is my only vehicle and I need it back up and running asap.

I looked underneath the clutch pedal and there's fluid everywhere. I'm sure the mc is dead. I checked for leaks everywhere else and there is none. Last time I changed my clutch was a approx. 4 years ago so I definately know it's not a case of bubbles in the lines.

I have a 2001 Integra...so whatever the car came with when I purchased it new (oem). I just read that Honda posted a bulletin about their not so dependable clutch mc's Wish I knew about it sooner....

Sounds about when mine died. Unfortunately these don't seem to last long on the Type R

Mine has a really annoying squeak to it when the pedal is pressed down. Doesn't seem to hurt performance at all though.
